DIY
What are the benefits of making or mending my clothes?
- Making your own clothes is an environmentally friendly alternative because you only use the amount of each material that you need and can be sure that you will wear each garment.
- You can personalise the look of garments and design them to fit your specific body type exactly.
- You can express your personality in every fiber.
- Aside from the ethical and personal benefits, being able to make and repair your own clothes is a calming and useful hobby.
